Solution Architect Interview Experience - London, England

Process

The process started off well, with plenty of communication from the recruiter. They lined up the phone interview quickly.

From there, it was pretty much a complete joke. Weeks would go by with zero communication and no information on what was happening. Many times, I assumed it was dead.

From the phone interview to scheduling the face-to-face interview, it took 2 months!

The face-to-face interview was frosty and unpleasant. No attempt was made to demonstrate what it would be like working at Red Hat, the team, or the culture. Even the simple details of the job were all forgotten. It seemed like an exercise to grill the candidate as much as possible with a barrage of questions and show off how clever they are at interviews (posing off-the-wall questions and laughing at your response).

After the interview, I've heard nothing. Three weeks have passed, and they've ignored every email and failed to give any feedback or information on how it went. Absolutely terrible. I would not ever work at Red Hat based on this experience.
